Check out this Urban Beekeeping event hosted by the Dalhousie Urban Garden happening next week!??????

Without pollinators, most flowering plants could not reproduce. Given that nearly one-third of plants consumed by humans require pollination, our ecosystem needs them!

Ever wanted to gain insight on the most important pollinators? Honeybees! Come learn and view one way of urban beekeeping in Halifax. This event will be led by Charles Williams, a certified permaculture designer and Lorraine Yerian of Halifax Queen Bee Honey, and active member of Halifax Honeybee Society.

This event is free and open to all.

Snacks provided.

Located at the Dalhousie Urban Garden, behind the Computer Science building on Henry St.

This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) people first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations.
